Hello,

I have been looking for some VFDs to interface to a Stamp. All of
them that I have found have a parallel interface. Does anyone know
of anyone who sells VFDs with a serial interface, similar to serial
LCDs..?

Thanks,

Jared Hoylman

    >Hi Jared -

    HVW Technologies offers the Max Orbital Serial VFDs on their web site.
    This link should give you an idea of what they have:

    SEETRON has serial VFDs designed to work with the Stamp. I have used
    them and they're excellent.
